I recently moved back to the area and have been looking for a new nail salon, so I decided to give this place a try--and overall, I had a really pleasant experience. The salon was clean, peaceful, and not busy at all when I arrived. I was able to get in right away, which was great (I went on a Thursday morning). I didn't have much time, so I opted for a gel polish change on my feet and a fill-in on my nails with a cut down and reshaping. The polish change was quick and efficient, and I especially appreciated the extra touch: the man who did it wrapped my feet in a warm towel and gently massaged and squeezed them afterward. I suffer from plantar fasciitis, and although he had no idea, that simple gesture gave me unexpected relief and meant a lot. The fill-in, however, did take quite a long time. I arrived around 10:45 AM and didn't leave until about 1:40 PM. While I understand that quality takes time, the process definitely felt longer than expected for just a fill. One standout part of the service was at the end: while I was under the UV light, the woman who did my nails came over with a warm towel in a plastic bag and gave me a shoulder massage. I've never had that kind of attention and care at a nail salon before--it was truly a lovely and unexpected bonus. Now, the only downside (and the reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars) was what happened during checkout. As someone who believes in tipping--I don't get a service without leaving a tip--I was really caught off guard when the staff member told me I needed to leave one before I even received my receipt. When I asked if the tip line would be on the receipt, he printed it out and pointed directly to where I should write the amount. I've never been to a place that basically demanded a tip like that. It made the checkout feel awkward and a bit uncomfortable after such a relaxing visit. Despite that, the overall service was lovely, and I do plan on giving them another try. I appreciated the thoughtful touches, and I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and experiencing what their pedicures are like! read more

I went here today for the first time and was happy with the services. You get a warm bean bag shoulder cover during your pedicure and a nice leg massage. I then got my nails done, I need mine short for work and chores so I requested that and Charlie was more than happy to help. After your manicure they give you a brief but relaxing neck massage which was perfect after the warm shoulder cover. This is a quiet shop that is great for relaxing as it's not filled to the brim with tables and chairs like other nail salons. I will be going back and using my punch card that gives me a free basic manicure or 10 dollars off on the 10th use. Charlie was amazing and patient, highly recommend him. read more

My grandmother, daughter, and I came in today for the first time! Daughter got a regular pedicure with gel polish and a gel manicure, Grandma got the lavender pedi with regular polish and a regular polish mani, and I got the lavender pedicure with gel polish and a gel manicure. Everyone was friendly, everything looked great, and we're all so so happy with the service we received! We will definitely be back. read more

Great atmosphere. Very clean. All of the technicians do an awesome job. Special shoutouts to Zia and Elaine who are two of my personal favorites and Eric who does a killer pedicure! Go check them out! read more

First time here. Location was easy to find and parking was plentiful. Although I did not have an appointment, I was seated right away. Initially, I assumed I'm getting regular treatment. The atmosphere was serene, the facility was clean and decor was complimentary to the plaza. My Nail Tech Ella did an amazing Job. She was not only knowledgeable but very helpful when it came to deciding on what I wanted. She's now set a new standard on how I'd like my nails. Additionally the staff was friendly and the price was average compared to other businesses. Will be returning to this establishment whenever possible. Overall the experience was nothing short of amazing and quality was worth the drive. Thank you Ella and staff . read more

I went on a Sunday afternoon recently as they were one of the only places open. I had 5 week old dip on my nails and it was the only chance I had to get them done for at least a few more days, so I decided to try Liverpool nails. I really should have just waited the few more days to go to my usual nail place. First off, the place is pretty no frills/outdated. That honestly doesn't matter too much, but I personally like to feel relaxed and comfortable while I have a chance to get away to pamper myself. I was quickly led over to the dip colors, which they had a pretty good amount of. I didn't quite know what color I wanted yet, so I took a few minutes to look through them, but felt kinda weird with the nail tech standing literally right next to me as I looked through them. I chose the color, he led me over to another older gentleman that was actually going to do my nails. He was SO ROUGH taking my old dip off, like drill turned up to the fastest setting the whole time - he was definitely trying to rush through. I even pulled my hand back and said "ouch" a couple times because it seriously felt like he was burning through my natural nail with the drill. He even nicked himself once and pulled his own hand back. Usually at the end of an appt, techs will get a warm towel and wrap your hands in it for a minute. He did this after my dip was taken off, but the towel was wrapped in a *trash bag*....I honestly just wanted to laugh bc there was no point in even doing this. He asked what shape I wanted, I told him almond, he made them round. He didn't put a layer of base powder underneath the color I chose, so my nails are translucent at the tips. He was tossing his tools on the table the whole time too, which came off bothered and careless. He asked if I wanted a massage and I told him no thanks...I already felt so awkward and uncomfortable. All of this, plus three of my nails have already cracked and chipped. One is literally shattered, and it has only been a week. I know some of this could have been remedied if I had said something. But overall the experience was extremely underwhelming. Pretty safe to say I will not be back. read more

Every time I go here I get amazing looking nails! The salon is very clean and nice. Although my nail polish on my thumb and ring finger is coming off it in chunks this has only happened this one time. The workers are very kind and do good work. I recommend this salon! read more

Went here for a gel nail polish change. I have been here many times in the past. I had an appointment and did not have to wait long at all. Charlie was great, very gentle and kind. I have never had a bad nail service here. The vents on the nail stations could be a bit cleaner but the rest of the salon was fine. I would come here again as they are pretty reliable and predictable as to what you expect and get. I have tried other salons but always end up back there. read more

Very friendly. I made an appointment and I recommend others to do the same. It was actually quite busy while I was there. Very clean and everyone was wearing a mask. They have taken several different steps to help with covid prevention, so it feels pretty safe. Several different pedicure add ons from $50-85 bucks. I was able to show them a picture for the nails I want and they were able to get it close to what I wanted. They made sure I was aware of the price before starting. The nails pictured are gel and cost $60. FYI, they take cards but only accept tips in cash. They do have a no fee atm if you forget the cash. read more

went here for first time and had a great dip manicure on my natural nails by jessica. went back to get a new set and my nails were ruined. Jay was the man who did my manicure this time. the dip was applied so messily and thick and after asking the tech to fix my nail they proceeded to apply another layer of dip and then filed it right off. within 3 days my long natural nails began snapping off. Will most definitely not be returning. There was also a child running around the salon the entire time which was quite disruptive in what is supposed to be a relaxing setting. read more

The best around so far. Very professional and reasonable too. A lot of extra time given and attention to detail. Walk-ins are more than welcomed! Even a coupon given on first visit! Check em out. men are welcome as well! read more

I never leave reviews. This place is extra special. My mom was recently moved to a memory care facility in Liverpool. I just moved a half hour away after living on the West Coast and was unfamiliar with area salons. We happened upon this one as I was looking for a place that took walk ins and could also do a dip manicure. They were able to give us a same day appointment and treated my mom like a queen. She was so happy. This is now our go to salon. read more

Two nails broke within 3 days of getting them done. When I was there the man nail filing was also hitting the skin on my fingers which made me bleed. Not a good experience and not worth the money read more

Went in the other day when my daughter was having a horrible day to get her first adult manicure. Her nail sales did a wonderful job and her nails came out great. My nail stylist however I did a horrible job on my manicure. She cut up my fingers and one is getting infected two days later. And some of my nails look like they got a manicure about a week ago instead of two days ago, because she didn't fully cover the nails with nail polish. This was a painful and horrible experience for me. read more

I moved to Syracuse this year and am very picky about nail salons. It took me a while of trying other places, but after a few visits here, I knew this will be my go to place. I've been about 6 times so far and have gotten pedicures, full UV gel and fills and regular gel manicures. All have been expertly done with high attention to detail and a focus on great customer service. The salon is welcoming with a very friendly manager. Everything is very clean and in good repair. They offer a fun selection of different services like pomegranate and green tea pedicures. Many times services come with extras to select from that would cost a lot more at other places. My last experience, tonight, is the reason I decided to write a review. I went after work and arrived at 6pm. They close at 730 and thought that a UV gel fill and pedicure could be completed in an hour and a half. Although it did last for nearly two hours, they didn't rush or do sloppy work after they closed the salon. They made me feel relaxed and not once said anything about me being there after close. They did great work and it was a fantastic way to end the week. I will be a long time customer! read more

Checked out Liverpool Nail & Spa for the first time while I was in town for a wedding. While the facilities are extremely nice and a big update from what it's been in the past, the service wasn't the greatest. The staff is extremely nice, but the manicure and pedicure were not the greatest. The pedicure wasn't thorough and the final polish didn't feel finished. The gel manicure was not complete. The nail shape was uneven and rigid. And the cuticles were not done well. Also could have used an additional coat of polish. Again, great staff and facility but unfortunately I wouldn't go back having paid for a service that wasn't the greatest. read more

I'm home visiting from LA and wanted to get a mani pedi. My mom is picky about where she gets her nails done so I did my research on Liverpool nail salons. I'm glad we chose Liverpool Nails & Spa. The woman in the front, Chen, who I believe is the owner, is one of the cutest and sweetest people you'll ever meet. I had Suki as my nail artist and my mom had Shania as hers. We were both overly pleased with our services. We both got spa pedicures which included manicures as well. Both Suki & Shania were incredibly detailed and very kind. While sitting in the massage chair for the pedicure, Chen brought us a shoulder "hot pack" which added to the overall relaxation. Throughout the visit, Chen checked on everyone in the salon to make sure they were enjoying their services. They offer a frequent "buyer" card which on the 11th visit, you will receive $12 off (which can be used for a free manicure or $12 off another service). While waiting for our nails to dry (we did normal polish, not gel), we received a quick warm towel shoulder massage. Everything was fantastic but this made the experience that much more awesome. I believe we've made a repeat customer out of my mom. I highly recommend Liverpool Nails & Spa for anyone who is looking for a new nail salon. read more

Excellent customer service. I was seated right away. I loved that not only do they give you a leg massage, they also give you a back massage. I was very relaxed. The nail technician also did a decent job on my toes. I will definitely be back! read more

I always go there to get my wax done monthly and I think this time the wax was too hot because it took some of my natural tan off. Over all the lady does a wonderful job and does the wax in 15 mins or less. I spend normally $50. On the other hand I got my both a pedicure and manicure done the the same and did not like how my toes came out. I wanted an ombré look with different blues and it looks like two colors instead of being mix together. My nails on my hand are okay. Just gel and rhinestones. However within 5 hours they fell off but that could be because I'm a home health aide and was working that night. Overall experience for the nails I would not get certain designs done by that one lady because she didn't grasp the idea nor the picture that I showed her! read more

I got my nails done like two days ago and some of them are already cracking ... definitely not happy and don't think I will be going back

I usually go to this place to get my nails done but I was pretty disappointed this time. I used to get dip or acrylic but I had stopped for months and allowed my nails to grow long and strong and opted for gel. The gentleman who did my nails filed them down with the drill so thin that I may as well have gotten acrylic. I am very sad as the drill shouldn't be used during gel with the exception of removing old polish which I didn't have. I'm going to have to start from scratch and regrow my nails because they are brittle and thin and also advocate for myself better in the future read more

Friendly, clean and reasonable. Open on Sunday's and didn't have to wait. Employees were happy to help pick out a color. If your looking for a gel manicure with an added bonus they provide a heated neck pad and a quick neck rub. Double gel nail lamps make the time to get your nails done a snap. This is the second nail salon I've gone to in the area and I have to say I will be honest...I'm coming back for a pedicure ASAP! Frequent customers get a punch card where your 11th visit awards you a free regular manicure. Cha Ching! read more

Great place when they have no customers. But if it gets busy, technicians start to get extremely stressed. Running around dropping things rushing and cutting you when filing both hands and toes. I know others felt same way as they even noted the way your rushed thru or started and then left to start another customer. Have you chair hopping or move you while your sitting.... yanking you around on wheels. I watched one technician swat a sweet older woman in the face with a heat pad as she placed on her neck. Then technicians tells me to relax. Really, you try relaxing after someone is so franticly running around like a chicken with their head cut off. Slow your roll folks or hire more staff. read more

I had a wonderful experience at Liverpool Nails and Spa! I'm new to the area and decided to try this salon out due to the positive reviews. I went with a gel manicure and was in and out in 30 minutes. I was given a quick complimentary shoulder massage, and the owner gave me hand lotion and a $5.00 off coupon for my next service. It was clear that the owner is passionate about her salon, which I believe is hard to find. Overall, great experience! I definitely recommend this salon. read more

I went their because I had a 115.00 gift certificate. I was disappointed. First I do not consider a salon clean unless I witness the utensils coming out of the packages. I asked if they were sterilized but I have to take their word. They were in a basket that looked less than desirable. Their were no sterilization equipment visible. I also wanted a massage and because I already knew I would not be back I got the longer one. It was a chair message which is ok if you have a ten minute one but not great for the long one because they don't really get passed your shoulders and upper back. I prefer the place in the mall for less money and a true spa like atmosphere where you can lay down and the can get to the spots that hurt. So my bill came to 100.00 and I gave her the gift certificate and told her the 15.00 was for the employee. She gave me a hard time and told me to use it for a future visit but I did not plan I coming back. I hope she gave it to the person. I don't feel customers should have to worry the whole time wondering whether instruments are sterile. It should be obvious my biggest beef. read more

Best gel manicure I've ever received. The staff was wonderful, and professional. Salon clean and organized.

I had an ANC gel powder manicure done here and do not think I can go anywhere else now! Sky did such a great job removing the terrible gel powder job I walked in with (from a different place). He was very patient and took his time carefully to keep my nails long like I wanted them to be. Everyone working in the salon were extremely nice. Can't wait to go back and also try a pedicure out! read more

Terrible!!! Made appointments for my and my 4 year old daughter to get pedis and manis before going to a big dance. It was my first time at this place and her 1st time getting pedis and manis and I wish I would have chosen somewhere else. I had to leave when my nails were still wet so that we had time to go home and get ready for our dinner dance!! (The fact that I made an appointment at the beginning of the week did nothing, we waited over 30 minutes until someone started on our feet) we mine as well of walked in. My toes chipped easily and they were still more expensive than other places I have gone. Plus they charge extra for callous removal?? Most places do that included in their spa pedi deal. read more

I've been getting my nails done here for the past 2 years, and after today I will no longer be going here. I got the powder done CNC about 4 days ago. The girl never put down the base coat. I noticed, but didn't say anything because I assumed she knew what she was doing. My nails started breaking two days after getting them done and that had never happened. I walked in and explained the situation and began to get my nails redone. She had began to take off the foil when four people walked in. The woman at the front instructed the one girl to take one of the customers and she started to work on my nails. She then told me I would have to wait 30 minutes to an hour because they had to "make money", even though I'm a paying customer who has been coming for over two years, knows all of the staff etc. I left with my nails not done, even though I paid $40 four days ago to get them done. I've never been more upset with a place in my entire life. I will never go here ever again. read more

I went for the first time .. in the middle of my manicure they ask me to pay for all the service.. that was so rude! In addition, the woman cut the cuticle of my finger until it bleeds even if I say her she was hurting me. I will not be back !! even if it's free read more

Wowwwww is all I can start with. Amazing, relaxing environment, also very clean and professional. They are so friendly. Nails done perfectly. It is fair priced and my favorite place from this day forward! Great job!! I appreciate having this place to go now!! read more

This place is treats you well but the way they do their nails was terrible. My nails didn't even last 24 hours. Well the guy was doing them he was filing them he broke one and had to glue a new one on. Also while I was there the person doing my nails, the older women, and the guy doing my cousins nails were all laughing at my nails and talking about them in their language. I will never go there again read more

This place is very close to my house. So for about a year, I've given this salon several chances to impress me. However, more often than not I would leave feeling disappointed. The staff often rush the customers, are rude and not very personable...every time I've gotten my nails done I've been disappointed with the outcome. They take too long, my nails are not even and they chip very easily (within the first week). They charged me $43 for a gel nail fill...plus I would give a tip obviously. Altogether I never feel that the nails that I walk out with are worth $50. Other salons I go to charge $35 and my nails last 3 weeks plus....They do a good job with pedicures in my experience as well as waxing eyebrows...but for the sort of hostile environment (unprofessional attitudes by staff) and the overpriced services I sadly wouldn't recommend as my first choice around this area...I really did want to like them. read more

I will start by saying the spa has really comfortable chairs. However, my experience was very poor. When asked which pedicure I wanted, the nail tech didn't easily accept my answer and kept trying to upsell me. Then without any questions, she cut my nails down so far there was barely anything to file and shape. She also cut the corners off. During the massage part, she began soliciting for an upsell again. I did get a back massage which was actually quite painful. At the end of the massage, she twisted both of my arms around to force my back to crack, all the while telling me to relax. When I expressed my concerns to the owner, she apologized profusely, scolded the nail tech and then offered me $5 off my next visit. I told her that I will not be going back. read more

Friendly staff and clean salon, however, i left with most of my cuticles torn up from drilling which is not the proper way to remove cuticles. 4 of my cuticles have scabs and one is pretty bad and looks infected and is painful. Matter of fact, I was there for the first time and got the ANC gel dip manicure (which I have been getting for several months now) and you are not supposed to drill at all when using this product. read more

I came with a friend of mine and my 5 year old daughter the day before Christmas Eve. The technicians were very welcoming, professional and kind enough to make my extremely shy little one loosen up and start smiling and laughing. Chae specifically made sure that every detail was attended to and perfect. I won't be going anywhere else from now on. Absolutely perfect experience overall. read more

I walked in at 5. The place closes at 730... plenty of time to do a fill on a full set that I had done there three weeks prior. I walk in and say that I need a fill. The lady at the front desk then grabs my nails, looks at them and says no, we cant do a fill today it will take to long and starts listing other nail salons that I can go to. I was willing to wait to get the fill, I just wanted it done here because I liked how my nails came out the first time. 1. You have plenty of time to do a fill... you had over two hours until closing and the place was empty when I arrived. No other guests were waiting. 2. Why would you turn down a RETURNING customer. I will NEVER come here again. If I could give 0 stars I would. read more

In my quest to find the best and most consistent mani/pedi I found myself at Liverpool Nails & Spa. I went mid-afternoon on a Wednesday, there were more customers than staff and I was happy to wait my turn. I asked for the special; $50 for a pomegranate pedicure w/ a free manicure. I asked if I could pay more for a French gel, they said yes & sat me in a chair... By the time my tech was finished w/ her previous client my water was cold (I wish they would've just let me sit in the waiting area until it was my turn). My nail tech was very nice, and the pedicure was fantastic. The manicure seemed rushed as more customers were coming in. She noted several times that my color choice was too light and required several coats; it felt like she wanted to be done so she could move on. Now, I totally understand that! She needs to make money, job done, I go to pay, it's $85!!! I can't understand how a gel polish French costs $35! The manicure was supposed to be free. I wouldn't have cared about the price if I had a great 5 Star experience, once I got home and really looked, my toes look streaky, and my cuticles are rough still. I suppose I'm off to find my next salon adventure! read more

I got powder gel and my nails came out good at first but the guy doing my nails was nasty and they started chipping after 3 days. Usually this type of manicure lasts 4+ weeks. A week later every nail is chipped. Waste of $35, will not return. read more
